11A

I selected the same seat on my flight. Does it recline given the emergency exit row behind?

I believe so - but not by very much!

I believe so - but not by very much!

I managed to change to 6A after checking in... Looking forward to my first flight on the A220!

VH-X4F just got registered two days ago. Shouldn't be far away for the next A220 in service.

Has commenced its delivery flight. Currently in YVR.

Well I have to say I quite like the A220. Economy legroom seems quite reasonable (my last Y flight was on BA intra-Europe and it's chalk and cheese compared to that). And the new J seat is pretty good too!

Sitting next to a paxing A220 captain on flight up to Sydney.

Loves to fly the bird, but a few idiosyncrasies.

It doesn’t like to slow down. Doesn’t lose much energy on descent . coughpit electronics and instrumentation a bit of a nightmare. Always having to reboot things.

Couple of other things, but he’s very proud of the aircraft ( not so much the rest of the fleet )

Nbr1 daughter started her HBA-MEL-DXB-LHR flights on VH-X4F. She said "plane looks pretty clean, maybe newer"

X4E went in for an engine change, unreliable aircraft coupled with HR issues is not the recipe for success QF we’re hoping for.

Only two?

Only two?

Why is it doing any? It's concerning that Qantas link are now flying the big city pairs. They should be part of mainline
